Pictured is a crowned lapwing foraging on the ground in an open field in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Africa. Crowned lapwings prefer short, dry grassland which may be overgrazed or burnt. Their diet consists of a variety of insects, but termites and ants form an important component. The photograph was taken from a safari vehicle based at the Atzaro Okavango Camp. The binomial name is Vanelius coronatus.
